I just don't buy all the SAFETY propaganda that is thrown around when its convenient to marginalize a group of truck owners because you have a heavier truck.

BulldawgFan is turning your arguments around to marginalize those same truck owners.
He says Payload ratings are arbitrary, and he uses as proof the fact that his F250 Diesel Lariat has a lower payload than an F150 HD Payload truck. In his own words: payload rating has "Nothing to do with actual real capacity" and "the proof is right there as a comparison of these two posts. An F150 has a higher MECHANICAL CAPACITY than a HD 250? Nope."
His F250 with the lower payload has a higher "MECHANICAL CAPACITY" (or whatever) than the F150 with the higher payload. Or so he claims.
Guess we'll just have to agree to disagree on this one.
